Installation

There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen installation, one method may be more suitable than another.

In typical front and rear screen installations, the projector can be placed upright on a secure and level surface such as a table or cart. Carts are useful when moving a projector during a presentation or from site to site. If possible, lock the wheels when it’s in position to prevent it from being moved during a presentation.

Mounting the Vision 70

Floor Mounting (Upright)

For fixed installations, and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited

Ceiling Mounting (Inverted)

space for projector and audience, you can invert the Vision 70 and suspend it from the ceiling

 

using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.

 

Caution

Use only the Vidikron-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your

 

projector. Install the mount kit according to the instructions provided

 

 

 

 

with it.

 

 

Tighten all screws securely, but do not over-tighten them. This is

 

 

particularly important when ceiling-mounting a Vision 70/CineWide

 

 

with AutoScope, because the anamorphic lens and lens motor shift the

 

 

center of gravity toward the front of the projector.

 

The projector can also be inverted and placed in an enclosure above and behind the viewing

 

area. Install four feet on the inside bottom surface of the enclosure on which the projector

 

can rest. A variety of materials can be used for this purpose (for example, rubber crutch tips

 

or turntable feet).

 

 

If the screen is significantly higher or lower than the projector, you can also tilt the projector

Adjusting the Projector

at a slight angle. In a ceiling installation, you do this by adjusting the ceiling mount.

Height or Projection Angle

For a floor installation, turn the four adjustable feet on the bottom of the projector to adjust the projector height and/or projection angle.

If you do this, you may need to make keystone adjustments or vertically shift the image using the on-screen display (OSD) controls, to compensate. For detailed instructions, refer to Using the On-Screen Menus on page 42.
